Rice was initially suspended for two games after video was released in February of a domestic dispute with his then-fiancée. TMZ released the full graphic video of Rice punching her in the face and knocking her out cold. The Ravens immediately fired Rice and the NFL followed up with an indefinite suspension.
Following the suspension, Rice lost his endorsement deal with Nike and was removed from EA Sports' "Madden NFL '15" video game. His jerseys have been removed from NFLShop.com, the leagues official online store, and they were taken down from the shelves at Dick's Sporting Goods and Modell's on Monday. The Ravens also announced on Tuesday a deal to allow fans to exchange Rice jerseys at some point.
